The Best Way to Learn in an Online Course
"A well-designed online course will guide you through the course content, and will also guide you in the best way to learn the material and to achieve desired learning outcomes. The course will bring together cognitive and behavioral approaches. In addition, self-regulation (motivation, goal-setting, etc) will be incorporated in a seamless way so that you're learning how to manage time, how to practice for exams, and how to plan for achieving outcomes."

More than 100 Free Places to Learn Online - and Counting
"I’ve been a fan of open education for some time and recently have been intrigued by the revival of the “free” business model debate by Chris Anderson and Kevin Kelly, among others. So, conflating the two, I decided to undertake what turned into a “pulling a thread on a sweater” exercise and see how much free online learning I could find on the Web relatively quickly. Free online courses, free education sites, free CE, free CME - basically anything free and educational that I could find. I’ve included some notes and observations on this exercise below," (Mission to Learn)

Using technology in teaching and learning
"Humans have been teaching and learning by technology since Socrates first complained about it in the 4th century BCE Phaedrus. Now that we are into the second decade of the Web and the Internet’s second generation, we have seen a wide range of practices emerge for teaching and learning with technology. As technologies have proliferated and developed, teachers have developed and shared techniques and projects through networks and institutions. In this cyberspatial milieu, students have been guinea pigs and innovators, taking classes, experiencing projects, helping teachers and staff support instructors teach, graduating as alumni, and sometimes returning as staff."

Film School: To Spice Up Course Work, Professors Make Their Own Videos
"Sometimes Edward J. Berger leaves class with the nagging feeling that some of his engineering students at the University of Virginia just aren't getting it. Maybe the concept he was trying to get across was too abstract. So he heads back to his office, films himself working through an actual problem, and posts the video to the course blog." (Jeffrey R.

21st Century Teaching and Learning, Part 1
The problem with all of what we currently do in the general scope of education is that we, the educators, hold on to how we learned and how we process information and knowledge rather than thinking through the realties of how new students and future students think and process and the challenges they will bring to our courses. Even those most innovative "early adopters" among us struggle to discover effective uses of technology in education but do not really understand how our students perceive what we do or how they process the content we give them.

Lessons learned from teaching (and learning) with technology
I took courses on Advanced Instructional Design, Instructional Video Production, and Distance Education. I taught courses on Educational Psychology and Instructional Technology in Teaching. The classes I took were good, but I learned far more from the classes I taught than from the classes I took. So what did I learn? (No Longer) Alone in a Library)
